Sit Down, Be Present | Women Leaders | Mindful | | Balance | Self Love | Ennegram 2 | Alpha Female

In this heartfelt episode of Sit Down, Be Present, I’m joined by Leia Baez—author of A Star for Stella and an inspiring example of radical vulnerability in action. Leia shares her transformative journey of embracing honesty and self-compassion to overcome challenges, live a sober life for the past five years, and rebuild a life of purpose and love with her daughter.

Together, we discuss how radical vulnerability starts within—by speaking truth, love, and honesty to yourself. Leia opens up about the lessons she’s learned along the way, including how letting go of shame and practicing self-accountability were key to reclaiming her power and creating a life she truly values.

This episode also introduces themes from my upcoming book, With You In Mind: A 10-Day Reset to Reconnect with Yourself, Realign with Your Purpose, and Lead with Presence and Connection. At the end of our conversation, Leia shares a powerful exercise that will help listeners release shame, reconnect with their inner strength, and take the first steps toward healing and growth.

Whether you’re looking to let go of what’s holding you back, step into a new chapter, or simply find inspiration for your own journey, this episode is your invitation to pause, heal, and reclaim your power.
